Euro Truck Sim would probably have a larger audience since it has been out longer.
And since you are Europe based it will fit you better.
I’m not intending to start playing these titles. It will be mainly with a Simucube and a small mige attached to my office desk, with no pedals or button plates, just to verify force levels etc.
Then go with the cheaper of the two since I believe the internal working of both of them are the same.
@Mika when you get to the test/verification phase shoot me a message, happy to gift a copy to you (least we could do for the effort you’ve put forth). My son, all of 4 years old, enjoys American Truck Simulator though mostly to honk the horn and yell at me to drive faster when cars pass us. It would be nice to have a better driving experience [grin]
It appears that I had gotten Euro Truck Simulator 2 from some Steam sale. So I’m covered on that part. Lets see if I can get the next beta out before Christmas!
Surely not a primary task, but any news on possible progress on this ETS2 and ATS topic?
At the moment, since I don’t want to lose the possibility to fully use this 2 sims, it’s the only thing that prevent me to try the new Ioni firmware on other supported sims (mainly Assetto Corsa).
Thank you
I have implemented a lot more effects, and I intend to test them with a few titles before the next release. ETS2 is on the list.
Great to hear and thank you for the prompt answer!
I have made the “truck” rig for ETS2. Check it on my Fb “LAR555”
We drooled over it in our internal chat. Great job!
Can you post the settings you use in the SimuCUBE Directinput effects section, and also if you have adjusted any effects in the game itself. That would be fantastic, as we know there are a lot of fans and good modding community for these titles.
No problem give me couple days to visit the client. But ffb is mainly about the sine effect if I remember correctly.
Laurynas, I luv that track-sim, nice work
Cheers,

Glad I found this post. My profiles all had the DirectInput Effects at 0%. Made new profile at 100% and got my FFB back for ETS2. Would appreciate anyone to share their settings, would be great to see what others find feeling best.
Hi Guys
im really happy that Ats works aswell but i have a little issue: the friction and the sine wave work but the spring effect works not propper and is left or right ca 15 degrees off center. and that makes it a bit a pain to drive… i drive at a straight and take the hand of the wheel and it moves to the left or right… it depends in your last bigger steering movment… what i thing everything is set right… even 200% spring dont make a differance…
does anyone knows a solution ?!?
I will have a look at the spring effect implementation. Maybe it does not use the saturation value as it should…
the ffb from the plugin in the ets2 forum is way more realistic and better than the standard one. im using a gimx adapter to emulate a g27 (the plugin only works with logitech wheels normally). the spring also works with that
I saw that 50Keda made a Linux version of the plugin and states that:
“1. Support for “any” steering wheel. Linux port should work with steering wheel of any brand as long as it’s linux driver supports constant force application.”
He got the source from the original auther (Supric), so perhaps one could try to get a hold of the source and see if it can be redone for use on our wheels.
I’d rather not emulate a 900’ wheel as I’m a huge fan of using ~1800’ of steering.

good news for us trucker…
to aktivate the center spring you have to turn down the friction… just give it a try… tested with ATS^^
just turn it down to 75%
if it work give me please a short feedback
this is my momentary ingame setting… its way not perfect but its ok…
